The original version of this Article contained an error in the Methods section entitled ‘Fatty acid-albumin complex’, where the bovine serum albumin concentration of the 5 mM palmitic acid solution used for in vitro experiments was incorrectly reported as being 28 μM, and should have read 627 μM. This error has now been corrected in both the PDF and HTML versions of the Article.
